Re: won't someone please think of the users!?
Hi, Interesting discussion. :-) Here is my short take on this fwiw. Two key points (public source: http://www.linaro.org/about) 1) Linaro's goals are to deliver value to its members through enabling their engineering teams to focus on differentiation and product delivery, and to reduce time to market for OEM/ODMs delivering open source based products using ARM technology. 2) Linaro is not a Linux distribution. The organization provides great software and tools for distributions to pull from. So from the big picture, our first order optimization should be around these. We've talked about how and when we release quite a lot over the last two years. My own belief (and I don't manage the release process) is that the second order of optimization should be for efficiency at the Working Group level (efficient engineers are happier engineers and that means more productivity) and that then, as a third priority, we see what we can do to help out folks who look at Linaro as a Linux and Android distribution. I'm personally fond of this last one because we all know that Linaro's code rocks and many people want to pick it up and use it. A quick way to get there is for our members to ask us to develop an LTS (Long Term Support) version. We've talked about that previously as well and there are some member-affecting trade-offs to be made if we did that (which is why we haven't as of yet).

Re: Gmail corrupting spaces in plain-text mail?
Not much help but the going work-around is to not use the webmail interface for this and use mutt, thunderbird, etc. via imap and smtp. The added advantage there is you can add extensions to linkify bugs and such for places like launchpad, bugzilla, etc..

Upstream Patch Attribution and Traceability Errors
Hi Everyone, I wanted to remind you about two important things to consider when writing your patch comments for Linaro. I've been seeing some occasional upstream patches lately which have problems with a) attributions in the comments and b) traceability. So please... 1) Use your Linaro email address if you have it and also include your member/partner company e.g. Joey Stanford for the Samsung Landing Team e.g. Joey Stanford assigned to Linaro from IBM e.g. Joey Stanford for Linaro Currently I see patches submitted as "Joey Stanford " with no reference to Linaro at all. This is a problem firstly because we aren't attributing the code fully and secondly it reduces the awareness in the Open Source community of the benefits Linaro brings to the table. 2) If your work is based upon a bug or blueprint in Launchpad, or any other system for that matter, please: a) Put these in the bzr/git revision log via commit comment. Most of you are doing this and it's great. If you aren't, please do this. b) Consider including that in the comments for traceability. e.g. Fix for audio stack failure on IMX.53 Launchpad Bug #123 e.g. Implement Graphics acceleration on Origen, Google Code Issue #123 Today we are aware of some of our members who are grep'ing patch comments, but not revision logs, to extract this information and are not finding the details of what the patch fixes. I realize this somewhat of an edge case but every bit helps for traceability.

Right on. We'll need to implement some sort of social contract for
this. I'd want to get the tech leads to weigh in on it as well if we
decide to do it. Looking at Ubuntu there seem to be Chores, Tech
debt, new features, bugs, and some edge case stuff there. Each of
those would likely have a different priority within the Linaro working
groups (but not necessarily within the community developer area).
Your comments are really to my original point: if we roll something
like this out I'd want it to be useful to both the full time Linaro
Working Groups (and other areas inside Linaro) as well as to the
Linaro Community, including community developers. (Hence this
discussion on -dev).
J
--
For the non-Linaro folks on the list, our Working Groups commit to the
Linaro TSC to accomplish a number of items of our roadmap.
Consequently like any development shop they don't have a lot of free
time. I'm hoping that an ideas system would provide a "wisdom of the
masses" affect and do a better job. It would also give us another pool
of opportunity items to look at ("Hey, we're in here working on X and
if I took another 2 hours I could accomplish this other great thing
that many people need and we'd be heroes.") . You could do that with
bug reports though and good gardening techniques. What I'm not sold
on yet is the cost vs benefit of doing this. I would have to put
staff on this to manage it and get the ideas circulated within Linaro.

In the same vein the Project Managers are not there. We took a stance at Connect that only things that a developer wants should be presented on the front page of the developer wiki (which is what this is). If you don't do this, the page just grows into a website (and we have one of those already). Therefore the TSC, PMs, and OCTO were not added. We want the wiki to be focused on development functions, not teams (even though in our case they are the same). Our next bit of improvements will be to the WG pages so they focus on functions (and roles) with teams being a smaller but needed component. This is all part of our burgeoning web framework which will tie in all of our web assets, not just the wiki.

Announcement: MMWG Changes
Team, I'd like to announce a change in the Tech Lead position for the Multimedia Working Group. Several months ago when the Multimedia Working Group needed a new team leader on short notice, Kurt Taylor graciously accepted the challenge. He's done a good job ensuring the team's continued success. Being a Tech Lead brings with it a non-trivial amount of management and administrative duties. Kurt realized that he would like to pursue a more technically oriented (i.e. architecture and coding vs admin) path inside Linaro. Since we do strive to put people where they are most happy, we're going to shake things up a bit. Kurt will be transitioning immediately to an audio focused technical role inside the Multimedia Working Group. Ilias Biris, the project manager assigned to the team, will take on the temporary role of Tech Lead for the team while we search for a new lead. With Connect fast approaching we'll begin the search for a new lead after Connect. Ilias will continue to report to me but will take interim Tech Lead direction directly from Kiko. Ilias's other project management duties (graphics and OCTO) remain unchanged. I'd like to express my thanks for all the hard work Kurt has put in and wish him well in his new position. I'd also like to thank Ilias for stepping up and handling this interim assignment. Joey ___ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev

Hi Gang, FYI Effective immediately #pm on the private IRC server is deprecated. Please move over to #linaro-pm on Freenode. We were using the private #pm to talk about operational items and potentially some confidential landing team items. For the last few months all of the discussion has not contained any material which contractually needs to remain private so in the interest of transparency I'm forcing the channel over to Freenode.

Also, if you've been complaining about the wiki being broken, now's your chance to see if there are still problems with this newer version. Known Issues: 1) The calendars will need a tweak. Right now you'll get an error like this: <> 2) The column macro (like the one we use on the front page) needs some tweaking after the upgrade. The front page has been tweaked on the test wiki.

Yes, those are the Panda official supplies which are discontinued due to "an undisclosed issue with their provider which caused them to terminate their relationship with said provider" I should have mentioned this and thanks to Anand for reminding me... we can continue to purchase those in stock until they are gone. However, there are over 1000 panda boards back-ordered and digi-key is expecting those 3000 to sell out once Panda starts shipping again.
